Justsomerandommodeller I can definately think of a WAY worse place than a foot that X-Acto knifes always seem to fall towards.

Ohhhhh...that do make you suck back in the chair fairly quick, don't it?
Amazing as it seems, with the handle being so much heavier, it always seems to fall blade first.
At least the CA is always available to staunch the bleeding, and another time it won't set as quickly as needed.

On The Bench: Tamiya 1/32nd Mitsubishi A6M5 Model 52 Zeke For Japanese Group Build
Build one at a time? Hah! That'll be the day!!
For us older dudes.
You're in the middle of a crucial assembly step and have to pee.
Bad.
Morrison's Third Law:No matter how large the bench, the usable work area is always exactly two square feet.
Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

Just two square feet? Man that is spacious! The Duke's Third Law only allows for ten inches of usable build space in my Hobby Room! LOL!
You either lose a part, or set it right "here" so it won't get lost (which, of course, it gets lost)....so you order a replacement. After waiting for days/weeks for said replacement. You proceed...and JUST after getting that replacement in place on the model...low and behold, that part you lost was right in front of your face the whole time!
Right after you finish sanding off the incorrect raised panel lines on the primary hull of your 1/350 Enterprise, they'll come out with a smooth hull you can buy seperately.
Well ;
Let's see , how about when you think you just finished a very intricate part assembly you find there is a piece that should've been installed before you finished , wasn't. Now you can't even get tweezers in the spot to install it ?
Or . You carefully matched the colors you needed , only to find , after sitting for a week or so the darned mix isn't the color you really needed after all ?
How about this . You all know I foil a lot of aircraft . Now then , what did I find when I started one in a hurry . I don't have any New X-Acto blades to trim the foil with !
Yes , there are many Murphy's law incidents I can think of .
ecotec83 No matter how careful you are one tiny part always seems to go missing. Decals never seem to stick unless they are in a spot you dont want them in. That tiny part that flew away should not be that hard to find on the floor.

No matter how much space, storage bins, containers, shelves you have, you will never have enough space.

That tiny part that flew away should not be that hard to find on the floor. I was applying glue to a stabilizer bar the other night when it went flying out of the tweezers I was holding it with. I am sure I will find it in a couple of weeks but lord knows what it will be glued to.

On the bench: Revell-USS Arizona; Airfix P-51D in 1/72
Took my shirt and shorts off and checked them. Didn't think about checking the elbow.
Hey " G "
Where did you get such a wonderful space ? Try one square foot .
Hey ,
Don't laugh . Did you check the back of your leg or ankle ? I did that once and found the part firmly super glued to the inside of my shoe at the heel .

Or if your legs are hairy like mine, the tiny part might have gotten into them. I've had that happen once. I forget what I was building or what the part was, but after looking in vain on the workbench and floor, I finally gave up and used another part. It was later that I was getting in the bathtub and found the missing part tangled in the hair on my legs.
"Whaddya mean 'Who's flying the plane?!' Nobody's flying the plane!"
True story....right out of my father-in-law's mouth...
"Durrrrnnn....I've cut this thing twice and it's still too short". He was not joking either!!!
My mom explaining to my auto mechanic dad how the rim got tore up on her red 64 Impala convertable. "I thought the tire was only flat on the bottom."
Bless her heart!
